I'll start with the local boys:Five teams got in from Maryland/D.C./Virginia area.Radford, Morgan State, American, VCU and Maryland.

Sorry Radford, you drew UNC in the first. I hope you win, but I'm not betting on it.Morgan State, Again, I think you have a chance but... Hmmmm no. Sorry.American and VCU can win each of their games...Oh, and so can Maryland - believe it or not!

Branching out to the rest of the ACC:There are two Big 10-ACC matchups in the first round:Clemson-Michigan, and Florida State-Wisconsin. There could easily be two more in the second round:Duke-Minnesota, and BC-Michigan State. The ACC has never lost the challenge, and went 6-5 head-to-head this year. I'm hoping the winning streak doesn't end; but again, not betting on it.Picking Michigan State, Duke, Florida, Michigan.

And I believe Wake Forest should advance past the first round as well.
